Themaps have been developed in the framework of a project titled “Impulsethe growth of the renewable energies industrial sector, in particularsolar energy, in Vietnam”, financed by the Spanish Agency forInternational Development Cooperation (AECID).
Theywere made by a Spanish consortium, including the Institute for EnergySaving and Diversification (IDEA), Spanish National Centre for RenewableEnergies (CENER) and Research Centre on Energy, Environment andTechnology (CIEMAT).
These maps offer accurateinformation about Vietnam’s solar energy potential, useful for thedecision-making process for the development of related policies andinvestments.
The mapping of solar radiation andpotential is part of the country’s efforts to define renewable energyresources, including wind and hydropower, with the support of the WorldBank.
The maps will be also presented in Ho Chi Minh City on January 23.-VNA
